25. Shane McMahon
He got a taste of his own medicine when Raw took control of SmackDown and left McMahon and his roster dismantled.
24. Jason Jordan
Wounded during a match with Bray Wyatt that he eventually lost, he was also released from the Survivor Series squad...by his father. Ouch.
23. Daniel Bryan
It has been awhile since Bryan was on a rankings list for WWE, but he cut a Heyman-like promo on SmackDown. He hyped AJ Styles, his proclaimed "client".
22. Asuka
She was part of the siege on SmackDown and even showed her aggression on Raw when she leveled Dana Brooke, which allowed Bayley to capitalize and join Team Fox.
21. Stephanie McMahon
The female McMahon once again berated Kurt Angle on live television, this time for allowing John Cena to join SmackDown in favor for his overrated son.
20. Kane
The big man met his match when Braun Strowman literally slammed him through the mat to close out Raw. He may think twice before picking a fight with a real monster.
19. Kevin Owens/Sami Zayn
Owens and Zayn were in the midst of a main event bout with The New Day when chaos ensued as Raw stormed the arena. The duo escaped and hit the road before getting wrapped up in it.
18. The Bar
The tag champ trash-talked their Survivor Series SmackDown counterparts The Usos, but suffered a loss at the hands of The Shield. Least they weren't the one powerbombed.
17. Enzo Amore
Amore snuck away with a win on Raw, but Kalisto got the better of him and the last laugh on 205 when he was attacked by Enzo.
16. The Miz
The Intercontinental Champion is still hot and headed towards a greatly hyped match against Baron Corbin, but a powerbomb from The Shield cooled him off a bit.
15. New Day
The New Day were standing strong behind their words ahead of their main event match of SmackDown, but an ambush from Raw have them running scared ahead of Sunday.
14. Kalisto
Drew Gulak is becoming a big star recently, but Kalisto scored a major win out of nowhere. On top of that, he got the better of Amore on his birthday.
13. Bray Wyatt
Wyatt was back in action and made a big splash. He had the WWE Universe behind him when he beat and injured Jason Jordan. Jordan was pulled from Survivor Series, which pleased the fans.
12. The Usos
The brothers got some momentum with a victory on SmackDown in a single bout. They entered the chaos at the end of the night and like every SmackDown star, they were on the losing end.
11. Baron Corbin
The United States Champion was successful against Sin Cara in a title match and has his sights on Miz this Sunday. He was also one of the first ones to go full steam into fighting off Raw.
10. Ember Moon
Moon won a huge match that headlined NXT this week and it makes her a clear favorite to capture the vacant NXT Women's Championship at WarGames.
9. Finn Balor/Samoa Joe
They were rivals a week ago and fluid tag partners this week. They also won in a dominating fashion and were also key players in invading McMahon's territory.
8. Bayley
After several missed opportunities, Bayley won a spot on Team Fox for Survivor Series. Better late than never.
7. AJ Styles
The newly crowned WWE Champion got the full support and endorsement from Daniel Bryan ahead of his historic showdown with Brock Lesnar.
6. Brock Lesnar/Paul Heyman
Heyman alone was able to hype this mega match with just days to spare and that is why he is the best at what he does. He admits AJ is a formidable opponent and a dangerous one as well, but Lesnar is the favorite.
5. Braun Strowman
He made a large hole in the ring after slamming Kane to the mat and he was the wrecking ball behind the siege on the blue brand. Expect big things from him on Sunday.
4. Triple H
With an open spot for Survivor Series, Triple H returned to claim his place and add more name power to an already stacked match.
3. Kurt Angle
With the pressure coming down from Stephanie McMahon, Kurt Angle responded with great results. He pulls his underdog son from Survivor Series, adds Steph's husband to the team, and even leads an answering attack to Shane McMahon. He even got his hands dirty.
2. Charlotte Flair
Flair made history when she defeated Natalya. As an added bonus, she celebrated with her father after a surprise visit and a standing ovation.
1. The Shield
The trio butted heads with Stephanie McMahon and went on to level The Miz and The Bar. They went toe-to-toe with their rivals The New Day when they infiltrated SmackDown and led the full-on attack.
Do you think anyone should be listed differently?
What can these Superstars do to get back up at the #1 spot?
